Get Things Done

We believe in hiring the absolute best, and strive to achieve quality over quantity. Because we move millions of dollars in transactions every day, we value finding the right balance between speed and stability. Our team engages in all dimensions of the business, from sales and marketing to capital markets and underwriting.

We’ll work with you as you own and deliver business features that directly impact our core business, user experience, and ultimately help us to revolutionize the mortgage industry. Previous interns have worked on projects from launching a pilot consumer mortgage program to a machine vision lambda for text extraction.

Work and Play

At LendingHome, we believe in challenging our engineers, while also having fun. We are a highly cross-functional organization with a strong culture of collaboration that focuses on maximizing impact. You’ll attend company all-hands meetings and get first-hand experience in a company that’s growing rapidly and sustainably. Pittsburgh’s emerging tech sector was recently featured in GeekWire; our office is located in Nova Place, close to downtown and the stadiums, so you’ll spend less time commuting and more time shipping code. You may even spend an afternoon with the Pirates at PNC Park, at the Warhol Museum, kayaking on the three rivers, or exploring the foodie Strip District.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

Because we do business with the government, we must reach out to, hire, and provide equal opportunity to qualified people with disabilities1. To help us measure how well we are doing, we are asking you to tell us if you have a disability or if you ever had a disability. Completing this form is voluntary, but we hope that you will choose to fill it out. If you are applying for a job, any answer you give will be kept private and will not be used against you in any way.

If you already work for us, your answer will not be used against you in any way. Because a person may become disabled at any time, we are required to ask all of our employees to update their information every five years. You may voluntarily self-identify as having a disability on this form without fear of any punishment because you did not identify as having a disability earlier.

How do I know if I have a disability?

You are considered to have a disability if you have a physical or mental impairment or medical condition that substantially limits a major life activity, or if you have a history or record of such an impairment or medical condition.

Disabilities include, but are not limited to:
